Adding, “Some areas could pick up 40cm of snow with heavy falls expected in New South Wales… Snow during this complex synoptic setup remains likely, and to be heavy on western facing slopes, mainly falling between late-Monday through to Wednesday.”

"The Alps will see widespread 20-40cm falls, with the chance of slightly more. This is the strongest winter system we've seen so far this season"
